Route End #2

Volume 2 of Kaiji Nakagawa's seinen thriller Route End opens with a striking cover: a young woman with long dark hair and sharp, guarded eyes stares directly at the reader, dressed in a black blazer over a white shirt — composed on the outside, but radiating quiet intensity. Ki-oon's seinen label signals this is mature, atmospheric storytelling, and that steady, unyielding gaze suggests a protagonist who carries real weight on her shoulders. If the first volume drew you in, this 2018 French edition makes a compelling case to keep reading.
